Instructions

Take all the ingredients in a big bowl ( except oil and water) and mix.

Now slowly add water and mix the ingredients until you get a soft dough ( i used around 1 ¼ cup).

Divide the dough into 18 to 20 equal parts.

Options to make rotti:

You can banana leaves

Or you can use 2 tava/kavali

Or you can use banale/wok

Or if you have only one tava

If you are using Banana leaves:

Just warm the leaves, grease it and place the dough in the centre and press it gently to make a thin circle.( If the dough is sticking to the hand, grease the hand and then press). Make a hole in the center and few more around.

Heat the greased tava on medium heat, transfer this prepared rotti onto the hot skillet, Pour the oil in the hole and around the edges too.

After a minute or so flip it to the other side, and let it cook.

If you want soft rotti, remove it early.

If you are using banale/wok:

Grease the Banale generously. Take the dough and place it in the center.

press it gently to make a thin circle.( If the dough is sticking to the hand, grease the hand and then press).

Keep it on the stove on medium heat. Cover it and coot it until it turns golden brown.

Turn off the heat and remove it after a minute.

To make another rotti, wait until the wok/banale cools completely.

Using 2 Skillets:

First, add a spoon of oil on the skillet and spread it around.

Place the dough in the centre and press it gently to make a thin circle.( If the dough is sticking to the hand, wet the hand and then press).

Now make a hole in the center and few more around. Pour the oil in the hole and around the edges too.

Cover this rotti with a lid and place the skillet on the stove on a medium high heat.

Once it becomes golden brown remove out the rotti (Usually takes 6 minutes).

Meanwhile prepare the rotti in a same way on another skillet.

If you have only one skillet/tava then:

After the first rotti is done,

Turn the hot skillet upside down and run the cold water until the skillet cools down and then make the next rotti. ( be extremely careful while you follow this step)
